Title: Method and device for controlling toner density of an electrostatic printing apparatus employing toner
IPC: G03G15/08
Filed: 1989-08-03
Abstract: In an electrostatic recording apparatus according to the 
present invention, while a photosensitive drum (1) and a drum 
cleaner (4) are enabled but an electrostatic latent image is not 
formed on the drum and a developing unit is not operated yet, a 
light emission level of a LED (3a) which is controlled so as to 
keep a received light level of a photodiode (3b) which receives 
the LED's light reflected from the drum is measured as a first 
light emission level. If the first light emission level exceeds a 
predetermined level it is judged that the detector (3) composed of 
the LED and the photodiode is contaminated and requires cleaning. 
Next, the developer is enabled while the latent image is not formed 
yet, the light emission level to keep the same received light level 
is measured as a second light emission level. If a difference 
between the first and second light emission levels exceeds a 
predetermined limit level, it is judged that the photosensitive 
drum (1) and/or carrier in developer is deteriorated. Thus, an 
interval for cleaning the detector is extended, and the 
deterioration of the drum and/or the carrier is distinguished from 
the contamination of the detector.

Title: Terminal distribution block for incoming and outgoing electrical lines
IPC: H04M3/20
Filed: 1990-05-18
Abstract: The insulation-piercing terminal elements (8, 10) of the contact components (5, 6) for the incoming lines are led out on one longitudinal side of the distribution block (34) and the insulating- piercing terminal elements for the outgoing line wires are led out on the longitudinal side of the distribution block (34) opposite thereto. The other end regions of the contact components (5, 6) in each case have contact terminals (7) by means of which an electrical connection is produced which can be separated. A duct-like wiring space is bounded internally by one longitudinal side of the terminal distribution block. Said wiring space is divided by a transverse web, at right angles to the longitudinal side, into in each case one wiring space on the operating side (3) and one on the system side (4). As a result of the special design of the contact components (5, 6) and as a result of their insulation-piercing terminals (8, 10) being led out on both sides, the space which is required for housing the contact elements (5, 6) is particularly small, even in the case of a multi-row arrangement.

Patent EP-0482933-A3 (EP)
IPC: C03C17/09
Filed: 1991-10-24
Abstract: A spectrally selective, glare-reducing mirror 
for vehicles which consists of a substrate having a 
multi-layer coating which includes a thin, transparent 
dielectric layer, preferably of titanium dioxide at a 
thickness of 600-650 Å and a very thin layer of metal, 
preferably of aluminium or silver, at a thickness of from 
25 to 150 Å. The dielectric layer is closest to a source 
of incident light to be reflected by the mirror. When 
applied to the rear surface of a transparent substrate 
such as glass, the metal layer may also be coated with 
light absorbing material such as paint for protection and 
reduction in unwanted reflections. With these preferred 
dielectric and metal layer thicknesses, a blue reflecting 
mirror may result having a glare-reducing luminous 
reflectance from 35% to 60%, while costs can be reduced 
due to lesser amounts of metal being required than in 
prior known mirrors.

Title: Method of inducing tanning or dna repair by pulsed radiation and apparatus to effect same
IPC: A61N5/06
Filed: 1992-03-24
Abstract: A method and apparatus (10) to effect tanning or repair of ultraviolet-damaged DNA in humans. The method utilizes very short discrete pulses of electromagnetic radiation, with a dark period of low to zero energization between discrete pulses, of selected wave length. A first band of radiation, preferably between 250 to 400 nm, is effective to induce tanning; while a second band of radiation, preferably between 320 to 600 nm, is effective to induce DNA repair. One type of apparatus (10) continuously generates electromagnetic radiation of the selected wave length and projects that radiation through mechanical pathblockers to create the discrete pulses. Some possible mechanical pathblockers are rotating slats (41) having apertures (40); one or more rotating cylinders (20) with opening (26). An example of another type of apparatus is a stroboscopic flash tube (56).

Title: Musical tone control apparatus using detector
IPC: G10H1/00
Filed: 1987-10-13
Abstract: A musical tone control apparatus controls a musical tone 
corresponding to a movement itself of an object and the like 
which is detected by a detector. Such detector detects also a 
moving speed, a moving force, a moving angle or an intensity 
of given impulse of the object. In the case where the 
detector is mounted in the vicinity of a player's joint, the 
detector detects a revolving or bending angle of the player's 
joint. Hence, the musical tone can be controlled based on 
such angle of the player's joint. Thus, through this musical 
tone control apparatus, the player can generate a musical tone 
having, for example, a desirable tone pitch, a desirable 
volume and a desirable tone color based on the movement of the 
object or the player's joint.

Filed: 1994-07-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a permanent-magnet DC motor having two rotation-speed levels, especially for driving domestic kitchen machines, as well as having a stator which is fitted with permanent magnets and having a rotor (9). At one end, the rotor has two commutators (8, 10) each having at least two commutator brushes (7, 11 and 13, 14 respectively) which are approximately diametrically opposite on a commutator (8 or 10 respectively), and, at the other end, it has two armature windings which are isolated from one another in DC terms and are connected to in each case one of the commutators (8, 10). The armature windings have approximately the same number of turns and the same wire cross-sections, using the same material selection. Furthermore, switching means are provided for connecting the commutator brushes (7, 11 and 13, 14 respectively) to an AC voltage mains power supply (1). The switching means consist of a bridge rectifier (5) and a switch (19). The two armature windings are electrically connected in series with one another and to the positive output (4) and negative output (16) of the bridge rectifier (5) via the commutator brushes (7, 11 and 13, 14). The switch (19) is connected between the connecting lead (12) which connects the two commutator brushes (11, 13), and one of the two AC voltage connections (17, 23) of the bridge rectifier (5). In consequence, the DC motor can be operated at two speed levels using simple switching means, without it being demagnetised and heated non-uniformly in the process. <IMAGE>
Patent EP-0647058-A3 (EP)
IPC: H04N1/403
Filed: 1994-09-09
Abstract: A method of halftoning a digital gray scale image is disclosed that utilizes a 
point by point thresholding comparison to a novel diagonal correlation dither matrix. 
The new dither matrix forces diagonal correlation of adjacent dots in the output image 
while maximizing dispersion of dots, thereby producing visually unobtrusive output 
dot patterns. The matrix is generated according to a spatial domain cost function that 
determines a cost value for each candidate pixel based on respective radial distances 
and relative angles between a candidate pixel and the ON pixels in the matrix such 
that unit diagonals are favored over placement of vertically or horizontally adjacent 
dots.
